Yeah, for the double leg 3 times we see a Mat with Phil, twice without.

I am wondering if it is something possible with all the footage we have (espeically one of the interviews) if its possible that The Guidos get booted at the end of leg #7, and that teh Pit Stop we see with Charla & Mirna might be a non elimination leg at teh end of episode 8.

It would allow the possiblitity for them not being in first, and still match the boot list order, and explain why a greater is there (since for non elimination they are, just not TBC).

Also based on the Beach scene, I think its safe to assume at the very least a 24 hour pit Stop, though 36 is certainly possible.

Though of course it is also very possible that Charla & Mirna are in first when they check in and its the later teams that get there when its light out (say The Guidos).

Damn, this is going ot be a rough week, with probably the same number of previews and yet two damn legs to cover.

Okay are we assuming that the Pit Stop we see is the end of the 2cd epiosde?

Where are we expecting the first leg to end?

And do we see the GUidos doing any taks that we assume are int eh 2cd leg?

Because I am working on the assumption of some form of non elimination in episode #7. But if there isn't then, there could certainly be a non elimination round (where we do see the greater) and still be done to the correct number of teams as an option.

mswood, I hope I don't have to repeat my number of episodes remaining argument to you(it's already in an earlier post). One out of every 2 episodes plus one extra has be to Non-Elim or TBC. There are only 2 teams left to be eliminated before Guam and there are 5 episodes to go. Episode 7 must be non-elim or TBC or somenthing is very rotten in POLAND.

It would allow the possiblitity for them not being in first, and still match the boot list order, and explain why a greater is there (since for non elimination they are, just not TBC).

It's not like they have to come first or get eliminated, so even if they are fourth or fifth it would match up with the "are you kidding me" tone from Mirna.

Does the sun set that late even at the beginning of December?

I used a site and apparently the sun sets at 3:22 on December 6th - 2006....that can't be right? Can it?

Absolutely, in Universal time, which is Greenwich mean time. You have to adjust it to the time zone you are in. In this case I presume we are talking Zanzibar, which is GMT + 3. So add 3 hours and you get 622pm which sounds right since Zanzibar is near the far western end of that time zone and they are near the equator.

My only question is what precludes teh Guidos from being eliminated in episode 7 as opposed to 8.

As far as I can tell we know we have an extended Pit Stop of at leat 36 hours after leg 6 (thanks to the beach scene, its the only way Eric & Danielle could be there with Charla & Mirna and Oswald & Danny).

It could even be a 48 hour Pit Stop (that has happened a couple times over the years).

Lets use Season 5's format, for example.

In which leg 5 is the first non elimination point, where Uchenna & Joyce are saved.

Leg 6. Teri & Ian are eliminated

Leg 7 (especially if it does get to Poland) could have Joe & Bill eliminated or run over on the tarmac.

Leg 8 Non elimination of some form, I have been assuming that the shot we see is from leg 8 (though it could be leg 7).

Leg 9-Another non elimination of some kind. And this still gives us the Guidos gone in Poland, and UJ in the Baku caves.

Leg 10 a team is eliminated (Uchenna & Joyce and it could be the occurance of the Baku Caves) or one of the other two points (Hong Kong and what is the other possability of a Pit Stop that we haven't for sure nailed down.

Leg 11 a none elimination of some kind. and the Pit Stop at either Hong Kong or that other possable Pit Stop loaction.

I'm using small pictures heres my photobucket and as always your all welcome to it.

Since Boingo identified the greeter as Józef Antoni Poniatowski/ look alike the Pałac Prezydencki or Presidential Palace/ The Polish White House/Radziwill Palace , which I think is the background where the BQ's are twirling? might be the best place to find the pitstop?

Wait, I'm confused, what do we think the pit stop is for this episode? That white house thing with the lamp post, or that water palace?Hopefully it's the white house! MAYBE the blondies will come in first!
